An East Village snow day


GrĂ©goire Alessandrini let us know that he just added more images to his blog — New York in the 1990's Photo Archives. We featured some of his work back in May.

Some background: As a student here in the early-to-mid 1990s, he always carried a camera around with him ... and he has been uploading the photos from that time to his blog. He lives in Paris these days.

Anyway, given the temps outside today ... East Village blizzard pics from 1995 seemed fitting...

You may now spend your holiday weekend rooting through his photo archives here.
